Description of problem: In gnome-default-applications-properties, I have seamonkey chosen as the web browser and "Open link in new tab" set. If I click on a link, say in pan, nothing happens. I hacked up the /usr/bin/seamonkey to show the parameters being passed to it and it dumps out: -remote openurl(,new-tab) http://lwn.net You can see the %s is "ignored/not substituted" in the gconf key /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http and the url is just being appending to the end of the command string. In gnome-terminal, nothing happens when I click a url, but the browser doesn't even seem to be called, as my hacked up seamonkey script doesn't spit out any parameters. Is this because "real" gnome apps have a different way of starting default applications? Anyway, it's broken here too. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-2.24.0.1-9.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. in gnome-default-applications-properties configure seamonkey as default browser and choose "Open link in new tab" 2. start pan and click on a link Actual results: nothing Expected results: the link opened in a new tab Additional info: 1. the -remote command works fine from the command line. 2. my machine was an upgrade from fc9->fc10 if that matters.
I looked into pan, and it execs the gnome-open command. So it's much easier to reproduce this bug from the command line: With browser running: $ gnome-open http://lwn.net Error: Failed to send command: 509 internal error That used to work and would open in a new tab. Without browser running: $ gnome-open http://lwn.net Error: No running window found This never worked or at least it doesn't work on F9 machine. So this probably isn't a control-center bug, but somewhere in the gnome/glib code... not sure where though.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

still broken in F12.
Hmm, yes, this seems to be a limitation with the gio g_app_info_create_from_commandline() call. It only supports adding the commands at the end.

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
